This device helps astronauts with arms like Iron Man in Hollywood movies, easily lifting 7-9kg objects with one hand without strain. Gloves wearers also feel that the holding object weighs only 2-4kg.

Sensors mounted inside and outside the glove work to identify grip movements. Artificial ligaments simulate the process of real hands working, pulling the fingers along the movements around the object.
